Twenty-five-year-old Joy Ahiakwo, who was forced to drop out of the University of Illinois, Chicago (UIC) due to financial constraints, has defied the odds by graduating as the overall best student at Caleb University, Lagos, with a near-perfect 4.98 CGPA (out of 5.0) in Industrial Chemistry.
Her higher academic journey began in 2015 when she completed high school with exceptional results in the Cambridge GCE O’Level.
The following year, she excelled in her A-Levels and gained admission to study for a bachelor’s degree in Biochemistry at the University of Illinois, Chicago (UIC) in the United States.
Ahiakwo’s academic journey took an unexpected turn when her family could no longer afford her tuition at UIC.
“I couldn’t register for the next semester because we couldn’t afford the fees,” Ahiakwo explained.
“UIC requires payment before registration. My dad couldn’t pay 50% of the fee needed to spread the cost,” she revealed. “I checked scholarship options, but most were for Asian or Middle Eastern students, not Africans. I had no choice but to leave.”
Returning to Nigeria, Ahiakwo enrolled at Caleb University, where she initially struggled to adjust.
“I was used to the US system—being ‘spoiled,’ as I’d say. But my dad made sure I was comfortable. When I complained about the heat, he brought me a fan. When I needed a dress for an event, he drove it to campus,” she shared.
Despite the shift, her passion for Chemistry never wavered.
“I Read Every Night—It Was Fun for Me”
“I read from 7 PM to 11 PM daily. Chemistry came naturally—it never felt like stress. I built strong relationships with my teachers, avoided distractions, and stayed focused even while in a relationship,” she said.
She maintained her academic excellence and graduated at the top of her class, earning her the valedictorian title. Ahiakwo’s 4.98 CGPA earned her the title of best-graduating student in Caleb University’s Class of 2024—a redemption after her US dropout.
“I don’t see my time at UIC as wasted. It shaped me. But graduating top of my class here proves that setbacks don’t define you—your resilience does.”
A 31-year-old Nigerian woman, who once struggled to make ends meet on a meager ₦60,000 monthly salary, has shared her inspiring journey of resilience, self-improvement, and eventual success in securing a lucrative €2,600 (approx. ₦2.6 million) per month job with a German maritime company.
A Childhood Marked by Struggle
Growing up in a polygamous home with a fisherman father who abandoned the family, she and her mother faced severe hardship. Moving between relatives, she endured neglect and emotional abuse—including an uncle who refused ₦600 for her primary school leaving exam, blaming her for her father’s departure.
“I needed ₦600 for my primary school exam, but my uncle refused, saying he had no money. I knew he did—he just didn’t want to help me,” she recalls. “He’d yell that I was the reason my dad left. Those words stuck with me.”
She moved to Yenagoa in 2012 and lived with her sister. Initially, she took a job at a computer center that paid ₦8,000 a month before an encounter with a customer led to a secretarial role paying ₦60,000/month—a life-changing sum at the time. She used her earnings to support her family while pursuing education opportunities.
After missing out on nursing school due to financial constraints, she seized a NIMASA scholarship opportunity, passing exams against all odds. Despite a two-year wait, she was accepted in 2014 to study Marine Engineering in the Philippines, funded by the Nigerian government.
“NIMASA was offering marine engineering scholarships. I heard it on a Friday; the exam was Saturday. I ran for the form, wrote it, and passed. Five days later, I got the news.”
While studying, she supplemented her stipend by braiding hair, earning up to ₦70k weekly. She saved ₱30,000 (about ₦210,000) to fund her return for certification after mandatory sea training in Nigeria.
Returning to Nigeria in 2018, she faced stiff competition for ship placements. Accepting a low-paying ₦10k/month trainee role, she prioritized experience over income. By 2019, she returned to the Philippines—pregnant and determined—to complete her certification.
“Many of us waited years for placements. I couldn’t wait—I dropped my CV everywhere and got a trainee role for just ₦10k/month. Others paid ₦60k, but I needed the experience.”
From ₦546k to €2.6k Monthly
After NYSC, she secured a ship job in 2022 as a Second Engineer, earning ₦546k/month onboard and ₦250k off-duty. But her big break came in 2023 when a friend helped her land a role with a German company, paying €2,600/month (approx. ₦2.6m at the time), with travel between Europe and Africa.
“Now, I earn €2,600 monthly, sailing from Europe. When I look back—the hunger, the insults, the ₦600 exam fee—I realize: I couldn’t wait for luck. I had to keep moving.”
